Villa Nicolli Romantic Resort - Adults Only

Great hotel with friendly and helpful staff.
Decent food with smallish portions but still full you up.
We had a junior suite which was spacious but nothing special.
Indoor and outdoor pools. The outdoor pool doesn't have a hand rail so not easy to get in and out if you aren't 100% fit.
Plenty of sunbeds around pool and in garden. No parasols really but plenty of shade from trees.
A little out of town centre which does keep it quiet but a bit of a stroll to get to centre & no taxis!!

Holidays are expensive luxuries, especially nowadays, and decisions about where to go cannot be taken lightly. It speaks volumes therefore that, uniquely, immediately after returning from our stay at the Villa Nicole this summer we set about booking to return to the same hotel next summer. It was that good.
The hotel itself is tucked away off a quiet avenue a short stroll from both the town and the lakeside-both easily walkable either along the road or using paths and cycle ways. From the moment you enter the lobby you are greeted by both the amazing staff and your wonderful surroundings- views across the very pleasant, relaxed bar area and out to the new pool and bathing facilities, with multiple comfortable loungers either by the pool itself or in a separate green and shaded area for when the heat gets too intense.
The staff, without exception, were wonderful- remaining efficient and knowledgeable about what they were doing whilst at the same time sharing humour and jokes under the twinkling, watchful eye of Maitre d' Ignatio, who's dry, deadpan humour set the tone for the entire team. They made the whole stay a pleasure and are certainly one of the main reasons we will be returning.
The rooms were well appointed and clean and the food was amazing- a wide choice of both local and international dishes and no repeated offerings throughout our two weeks and so beautifully prepared and presented.
Riva is lovely and interesting, the hotel and its facilities are great and the staff are the best!!
Looking forward to next summer already so BEWARE IGNATIO- the peg man is coming back!

This is a lovely hotel. It's exceptionally clean and tastefully decorated. The staff are lovely and hard working as they are a small team who take pride in the service they offer. The only downside for us was that it was a little further from the centre of Riva than we expected so it's a good 15-20 minute walk to and from the centre, which can feel further in the hot weather.

The stuff is really wonderful. Rooms are spacious and clean. Amazing pool with great views of the mountains. Great value for money.

Very relaxing environment with spacious rooms. Bathroom needs modernising but otherwise well equipped. Had half board, and evening meals were disappointing - presentation was great but very bland and not particularly Italian tastes, plus bread and fish seemed to be cooked from frozen. Ate out a couple of nights and was then asked at breakfast why we had not eaten at the hotel. Drinks massively overpriced - €4.50 for a bottle of water and €15 for a negroni. Had to send a select few items to be ironed as there is no iron in the rooms - again ridiculous prices e.g. €8 for one dress. Cocktails for less than half that price elsewhere, including on the water front. Staff could not have been more professional and polite, especially as it was the same team all day long for 7 consecutive days. The hotel was kept beautifully clean. Great to have use of free bikes and would highly recommend a ride up to Arco and Dro. Would come back, but just stick to breakfast only.

I was there only for a massage, best massage ever !!! It makes me want to stay at their hotel next time. Everything was so perfect. The stagg was so professional and friendly. The masseuse was really great at her job, she put so much effort in it and she made me so damn relaxed. Thank you so much and I really hope I will be back !!

I enjoyed it and have a nice and good time.
Very friendly receptionists and delicious food

This was a lovely hotel that was extremely clean. The staff were really friendly and professional and went out of their way to make our stay amazing. The hotel is a little oasis in Riva and helped us have an amazing holiday. It is ideally located for both the old and new town.
